Ouput in decimals

harish reddy

int number = 3;

double value = Math.Round(46.00000000001, number);

Console.WriteLine(value);

My intention is to give input as 46.00000000001 and get output as 46.000 in the consolewindow. I want to get 46.000, not 46. So pls guide me.

if i give Math.Round(97.1639230690752, 3) its rounding of and giving me 97.164

but if do for Math.Round(46.00000000001, number) , its only giving me 46 , not 46.000

Pls explain

hi haris the bellow code will display your output
int m = 3;
            var v = Decimal.Round(3.000000M, m);
            MessageBox.Show(v.ToString());

If you want 3 digit format using ToString Format

double value = Math.Round(46.000000000001, number);
Console.WriteLine(value.ToString("#.000"));

Hi Harish Reddy,

I had tested your requirement.
For this scenario choose the decimal as like below to achieve.
int number = 3;
//decimal value = 46.00000000001M;
decimal value = Math.Round(46.00000000001M, number);
Console.WriteLine(value);
Console.ReadLine();

"Doubles don't have decimal places - they're not based on decimal digits to start with. You could get "the closest double to the current value when truncated to three decimal digits", but it still wouldn't be exactly the same. You'd be better off using decimal."

The above statement is from below URL :

If it helps mark as answer. Else come up with your query.
Thank you.
